new Albook screen brightness problem
I've owned a new 15 AlBook for a little over a week now. I noticed today that the right side of my screen is darker than the left side. it is exaggerated when I am in a bright room and the screen auto-adjusts. In the dark, the screen seems to even out. Is this a normal problem or is something wrong? Its not a major problem, I just don't want to get out of my warranty and then have the screen stop working. suggestions?

word perfect on a powerbook?
I have the following dilemma. I have two word perfect documents that I need to open on my powerbook. My PB is running os 10.2.8 and I have MS office installed, as well as bbedit. However, neither one will convert the .wpd files into a format that is readable by my software. IS there a converter out there or some other way to open these files?

Re: word perfect on a powerbook?
Thanks. I downloaded and installed it, but it still won't open .wpd files. Is it because these are new word perfect files?

Re: is my powerbook dead?
Thanks Seeing as I need this laptop for work / school (I use it from 8AM until I go to sleep) I can't afford to be without it for any period of time. Today I rode up to the apple store in soho, plunked down my credit card, and walked out with a new 15 AlBook. The machine is amazing. Once I've migrated everything off the old TiBook, I'm going to run it as an MP3 serverthat is after I tear it apart to find out what the problem was. Thanks for the helpIt would have been nice to have been spared the expense of the new laptop, but oh well Brendan On Tuesday, October 7, 2003, at 08:55 AM, Joe Ellis wrote: While it eliminates your hard drive it does not eliminate other possibilities such as a loose connection or perhaps a cracked circuit board.

is my powerbook dead?
Hey everyone, My powerbook started doing the weirdest things tonight. While using MS office to finish typing up a paper, my Tibook froze. Not just an application crash, not a kernel crash, just a complete lockup (first time in 3 years). When I rebooted my machine, it sounded like it powered up, but the screen just stayed dark and the hard drive didn't spin up. At first I thought maybe my RAM went bad, so I took out one module and left one in, and tried to reboot. Same result. Switched the RAM and tried again...same result. on a hunch, I booted up while holding option down, and suddenly i was given the choice of my os x partition and my os 9 partition to startup. I started up on the os x drive, and the machine booted normally and functioned fine. When I shut it down and tried to power up again, I was brought back to the dark screen. I rebooted while holding down option again, and again got the startup disk choice. I chose the os x startup volume again and the machine started to boot up again, and then when it got to the grey screen with the apple logo, it crashed and said system crash: cpu. The last thing I tried was resetting the power manager. Lo and behold, after doing that, my machine will boot up without having to hold down the option key and runs fine. However, when you turn the machine off, you have to reset the power manager again to get it going. Is it time for a new albook? I have the first series Tibook and have dealt with the whole range of problems (bad airport reception, heat, etc.). I updated to 10.2.8 and I know that it had some problems. Earlier this week I noticed my screen flickering, and then this problem started up. Is my powerbook on the way out or has anyone else run into this and has a suggestion?

Re: PCMCIA Card slot problem
I have the Tibook, running OS 10.2.6 with 1024MB of RAM. I haven't installed anything recently that I can remember, and I don't have another powerbook or machine with a pc card slot to test the card. So, I bit the bullet and bought a new card last night. I should have it today. Hopefully it works.

The card is a couple of years old, but it is in excellent condition and I'm not sure why it would just stop working. Brendan, I'm sure that those who can answer your question will ask this, but: 1) Which model of PowerBook (Wallstreet, Lombard, Pismo, etc.) do you have? 2) How much RAM in it? 3) MacOS you're running (9.2.2, X.2.6, etc.)? 4) Any new software installed since last time you successfully used the Orinoco (including extensions installed)? 5) Have you tried the card in another PowerBook to see if it works in another? Those answers will help pinpoint the problem, hopefully. Jim Rohde -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Help a newbie?
Maya, If you're running 9.2 you can always boot from the restore CD and do a restore of the operating system. This will re-install the OS but won't touch any of the third party extensions or control panels you've added. It also won't touch anything on the disk (like your files, etc.). It just gives you a new, fresh copy of the OS. Just be careful and double check all of the options when doing a restore. Make sure that you don't select the option for a clean install as that would wipe the disk before the restore. Of course, before you do that you might want to try another disk utility like Disk Warrior.
